Foot Locker

This should be left as a separate entry, as should the "F.W. Woolworth Company" entry. Foot Locker, Inc. is, for all intents and purposes, a new and different company and will be creating its own independent corporate history. The Woolworth's entry should remain separate because that was a distinct business with a significantly different impact on American retail history.Fluit 21:15, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Foot Locker, Inc." ought to be the main page, with "Foot Locker" (and similar) redirecting here, because Foot Locker, Inc. is the parent company.Fluit 21:34, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the "merge" banner. Many of the reasons supporting separate articles are articulated at Sears Holdings Corporation supporting a split of the entry into separate "Sears" and "Kresge"/"KMart" articles. Fluit 01:23, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

disambiguation[edit]

shouldnt there be a disambbiguation page here? I'd like to find more information on actual footlockers. perhaps a link to a page on trunks?

Disambig page created at footlocker. Think this page should link there too? Twinxor t 23:06, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Foot Locker's Logo is cool.gif[edit]

Image:Foot Locker's Logo is cool.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 09:28, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Foot Locker[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Foot Locker's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 10:28, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
